Plant and Animal Changes Overtime
By: Kendra Steele
What You Will Be Learning• Content Area: Science
• Grade Level: 1st Grade
• Summary: The purpose of this instructional PowerPoint is to inform the students about plants and animal changes overtime.
• Content Standard: GLE 0107.3.1 Recognize that plants and animals are living things that grow and change over time.
• Learning Objective: Given an informational PowerPoint the students will be able to understand and distinguish the changes plants and animals have with 100% accuracy.
• Accomplishment: TSW be able to distinguish the differences between plants and animals change overtime.
Introduction
• All living organisms change over time.
• Plants and Animals are living organisms that grow, develop, and change overtime.
• Plants and animals both go through different life cycles.
• We are going to begin looking at animal change overtime through amphibians and reptiles.
Animals- Amphibians (Basic information)
• Animals are living things.
• Amphibians are cold-blooded animals that begin in larva and when becoming adults, gain lungs. Amphibians include: frogs, toads, salamander
• Amphibians change over their life span.
Animals Change- Amphibians• The life cycle overall change for an amphibian (frog)
consist:Egg Tadpole Froglet Frog
• The frog is first inside the egg the egg then transforms into the tadpole (does not have feet/legs or lungs) then changes to froglet (has small feet-like appendages) and then change to an adult frog obtaining lungs to live on water and land.

Animal Changes- Reptiles
• Reptiles like amphibians change over time. Reptiles grow and developed. All living things grow and developed.
• Reptiles are known for being cold-blooded and scaly skin.
• Reptiles life changes consist of the following:
• Egg baby reptile adult

Reptile Overall Changes Information
Reptile Examples
Discuss!
•Turn to the person you are sitting next to and tell him/her something new you learned about reptiles.
Plant Changes- Sunflower• Just as animals change over time so do plants.
Plants are living organisms as well.
• Plants are organisms that obtain water by having the water go to the roots in order to grow.
• Plants are very important to the environment. Plants give energy to everything!
• Plants include: mosses, ferns, flowering plants, grasses, etc.

•Plant life cycle change overtime due to growth interactive game
Conclusion• Through the use of the instructional PowerPoint
the students have learned several things including:
• All living organisms change overtime. Plants and animals are living organisms allowing the plants and animals to grow, develop, and change overtime.
• Plants and animals change over time due to their different life cycles.
• Understood the distinction between the different change overtime. For example, reptile and amphibians begin as eggs while a plant begins as a seed.
• Did multiple interactive games, read extra information, and discussed about the life cycles.
